Sapsan Railway

Launched in 2009, the Sapsan Railway runs between Moscow and St
Petersburg as a high speed service. Its name is derived from the
Peregrine Falcon, thanks to its fast travel time, reaching up to
250 kilometres per hour, meaning that travelling between these two
stunning cities only takes 4 hours over a distance of 650
kilometres.

On the outside, the train is sleek and modern, reminiscent of
the Japanese 'Bullet Trains', and on the inside, the carriages are
comfortable and clean. Each economy class seat comes with an
adjustable back rest, a footrest, a folding table, an armrest, and
individual lighting, and there is also the opportunity to order
food from the bistro (payable locally).
